A simple, elegant alternative to the standard garden lights, this black lantern is inspired by its 18th-century counterparts used to illuminate the night. 15"H. 3" x 6" LED candle. Iron, glass and plastic. 2 C batteries not included.

Hand-held lanterns were very popular in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The ring at the top of this lantern design made it easy and convenient to carry. Today, Colonial Williamsburg Historic Area lanterns similar to this one are used to welcome guests to special evening events by lining the walkways to the entrance.
